Anti-PIGV antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class V. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 493 amino acid residues and a mass of 55.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the ER. It is a member of the PIGV protein family. Post-translational modifications have been described, including N-glycosylation. The PIGV gene has been associated with the disease, Hyperphosphatasia with impaired intellectual development syndrome. Synonyms for this target antigen include GPI mannosyltransferase II, Ybr004c homolog, dol-P-Man dependent GPI mannosyltransferase, dol-P-Man dependent GPI mannosyltransferase II, and GPI mannosyltransferase 2. PIGV gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Western Blot is the most common application for the PIGV antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
